The recipe calls for 10 cups of popped popcorn, not 10 cups of unpopped
popcorn. There is a huge difference. If I were to pop 10 cups of popcorn
kernels, that would make 60 quarts or 15 gallons.
If you think you're finished, you! really! are! finished!!

You get the popcorn seeds in a jar from the grocery store and mesure out 10
cups. Then cook it in your microwave, on your stove top or in a popcorn
maker.

Although I don't see how a blind person can accurately and safely do this,
it sounds interesting. Also, I don't know how much raw popcorn it would
take to produce the desired amount.

popcorn inside; set aside.
4. Stir sugar, water, corn syrup, vinegar and salt together in a
medium saucepan.
5. Bring mixture to a boil, cover, and boil for 3 minutes to allow

degrees F (145 degrees C(. Stir in food color, if desired.

spoon until popcorn is thoroughly coated.
8. Pour popcorn into first prepared bowl and use a spoon to push
